This invention. relates. to improvements in ironing boards, and has particular reference to a clothes receptacle therefor.

An. object of the invention is to provide an; improved board of simple and. practical construction,- the supporting frau' ework of which carries a receptacle utilized-as a depository for clothes and the like while the board. is-in use. 7

Anotherobject is to so mount thev receptacle upon the foldable framework of the I board that. said receptaclemay be collapsed when the framework is folded, thus permit-- ting the entire structure to occupy a minimumspace. r

The. above andother objects will appear more clearly fromuthe following detail; de.-, scription, when-taken inconnection with the accompanying drawings, which. illustrate a preferred embodiment offtheinventiye idea:

In the drawings:

Figure. 1 is-a side-elevation '0f,:tl;1e board in operative. position;

Figure 2 isa vertical. transverse. section on the line 2--2 of Figure.:1.=;: and 1 Figure. 3 is aside elevationv of the board in its folded or inoperative positions:

The foldable framework of the board comprisesthe standards hand. 5 each of which includes vertical side members which may be connected at their upper ends, the side members of the standard 5 being joined at their upper ends by a strap 6 pivoted thereto and to which one end of the board 7 is secured. Said board is provided adjacent its other end with a stop 8 which may be engaged with the upper end of the standard 4: when the board is in operative position to aid in retaining'the same insuch position and also prevent collapsing of the standards. The lower end of the standard 4 and the upper end of the standard 5'are connected by diagonal braces 9 pivotally joined to said standards. Adjacent the lower ends of the braces 9 the same have pivoted thereto at 10 the sections 11 of horizontal braces. One extremityof each section 11 is pivoted to one end of a link 1-2, the other end of which is pivoted to the adjacent side member of the standard 4. The opposite end of each section 11 is pivoted at 13 to the adjacent end of a shorter section 1a which combines with the section 11 to form the horizontal brace. The other end of said section 14 is pivotally connected at 15 to the adjacent side member of the standard 5 an is provided adjacent said. pivot with, a ,stopQlC engageahlevwith. said. standard to maintain t e esame amt'la a o udi a e i i' ent and: prevent their down-v n in-abs nt eri et' fi n i l soiieta iv position shownein -Figure The. sections;

The board further comprises a collapsible I receptacle which, in its operative position, wlll be located directly below the board'7 and be adapted to receive articles of clothing and the like while the board is in use. This,

dotted lines'in Figure 2 so that said side 7 members will not interfere with the folding of the framework of the board. v

To support the side members 22 in opposite position, the receptacle further includes end members 24 which are fixedly secured tothe standards 4.- and 5 and are provided in their ed 'es with notches '25 for receiving the free ends of latches 26 pivoted to the side members 22. Thus when the latches are engaged in the notches in the end members 2% it will be apparent that the side members will be maintained in a vertical position and that to collapse said members said latches need only be detached from the end members whereupon the side members may be swung downwardly about their hinges 23 and into the bottom of the receptacle. lVhen thus positionedthe receptacle will not interfere with the folding of the framework as described and since said side members 22 are not connected to the sec tions 14 of the horizontal braces, it will be apparent that said braces maybe broken at the pivotal points 13, as previously set forth.

' lapsible receptacle carried by said framework and including side and bottom wall members, the side members being hinged to said bottom member, end members for said receptacle fixedly secured to said standards,

' and latching means for supporting said side members in operative position.

t. An ironing board including a foldable supporting framework, comprising standards, horizontal braces connecting said standards and formed in sections pivotally connected together, a receptacle including a bottom member secured to the sections of said'horizontal braces, side members hinged members for the receptacle fixedly secured to said standards.

In testimony whereof I have affixed my signature.
